The moon is about to get record-breaking up close and personal.

The largest and brightest supermoon will illuminate the night sky next Monday, making it the closest moon to Earth than any time in the last 68 years, according to astronomers.

November’s so-called “ Beaver Moon” is expected to reach the peak of its full phase on Monday morning at 6:23 a.m. EST when the moon will pass within 216,486 miles of the Earth’s surface.

The impending full moon will rise in the east after sunset – and won’t come this close to Earth again until Nov. 25, 2034, NASA said.

NASA officials said that if the skies are clear, the supermoon will appear 14 percent bigger and 30 percent brighter in the sky.

According to Space.com, “November’s full moon is also called the Beaver Moon because it arrives at the time of year (in the Northern Hemisphere) when hunters would set traps before the waters froze over, to ensure they had enough warm furs for the winter.”
